Common Questions
Helpful information about getting started at Therapy Mission.
Do you accept Medi-care or Medi-Cal?
While we would love to provide care to everyone, we're currently unable to accept Medi-Care or Medi-Cal. Our practice currently only accepts commercial insurance plans, which are private insurance plans paid for by either an individual or their employer. If you have any further questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to let us know.
Do you accept insurance?
Absolutely! We're happy to let you know that we have great news - we're in-network with most plans through Aetna, Cigna, Beacon, Optum/ United Healthcare. That means if you have one of these insurance plans, you can likely receive care from us with little to no out-of-pocket costs. Let us know if you have any questions or would like to schedule an appointment!
What if I have an insurance provider other than Aetna, Cigna, Beacon, Optum/ United Healthcare? Can I still see you?
Of course! If you have a different insurance provider than Aetna, Cigna, Beacon, Optum/ United Healthcare, we still have options for you! You're always welcome to schedule an appointment with us by paying the cash rate. Additionally, if you have a PPO insurance plan, you may have out-of-network coverage. It's a great idea to call your insurance provider to inquire about this possibility. Depending on your coverage and benefits, some PPO plans can even reimburse you for the cost of your care. To ensure that you're fully informed about your options and eligibility, please give your insurance provider a call prior to scheduling your appointment. Let us know if you have any further questions or concerns!
Do you complete FMLA or State Disability Insurance (SDI) paperwork?
At this time, Therapy Mission does not complete FMLA paperwork or State Disability Insurance (SDI) certifications. While Licensed Clinical Social Workers are not authorized to certify California SDI claims, they may qualify to complete FMLA documentation. However, as a solo practitioner, I have limited administrative capacity and am unable to offer this service.
If you are seeking medical leave or disability benefits, I encourage you to consult with your primary care physician or another qualified healthcare provider who may be able to assist you with the certification process.
